State Treasurer Mortenson Visits the Property this Morning Says Con tract Will be Let In Time to Get Work Under Way Defore Winter. State Treasurer Mortenson , who has licuii at AliiHworth and Long 1'lno with the state boaid of education , of which ho IH a member , was Induced to Htop off luiro this morning by W. H HuchoU. Mr. Mortenson had never Hi-on the Norfolk hospital for Insane , either before or since the lire , and Mr. llucliolWIIH anxious to have htm give It a personal Inspection. They came from the west on the early train , and after they had breakfasted drove out to the hospital , where Mr. MoifJiison remained to give the promises a thor ough Inspection , returning to the city In time to take the noon train for Lin coln. coln.Mr. Mr. MortonHon could not DO HCOII iiftcr ho had viewed the property , but leforo he went out ho said that the state architect Is now engaged In the ( reparation of plans for the rebuild- ng of the hospital. The board has lecldi'd on the cottage plan , and It Is Ilgured that the ? 100,000 appropriation will bo miMlclunt to put np an admin- stratum building and two or three cottages , each cottage capable of ac- iommodatlng Ilfty or sixty patients. The plans will bo completed In line to lot the contract and got the work nicely started this fall. The ward bolloves the state can get moro for Us money by having the work done luring the winter than In the building season , as many men are glad to work it less than schedule prices during the closed season. Mr. Mortenson explained that In the transaction of state business of the magnitude of rebuilding the hospital , much valuable tlmo Is lost In what would seem needless rod tnpo to the uninitiated. During the whole of the early part of the season the board was powerless to make n start because there was no state architect. Then It was necessary to select an assistant , and this consumed moro valuable time. Thou there was the trip to the cast to Inspect the different styles of hos pital plants , requiring moro tlmo. Now the board has decided that It will adopt the cottage plan and thy archl tect Is at work on the drawings. Mr. Mortonsen promised to do all ho could to further the Interests of the Institution and got the actual work started as soon as poslble. PLANS FOR NEW EXCHANGE , Manager Sprecher Doesn't Want the Hello Girls Quite so Close to the Street. The now exchange which Is to bo this fall Installed in the local olllce of the Nebraska Telephone company , has now reached the blue print stage and Marnier Sprochor has Just re ceived charts which point to the man ner In which the now arrangement will bo fixed. The plan as mapped out on the chart calls for an even do/.on operat ors , besides the chief operator , who occupies u desk of her own. The scheme places the switchboard room In the apartment on the corner of Norfolk nvonuo and Fourth .street , whore the operators can look out upon either street. In the next room south Is planned the booth , the waiting rooms and the like , while on beyond that Is the olllco of the manager. As outlined , the now arrangement does not exactly suit the manager and ho has submitted a drawing of his own , offering changes. Ho wants the manager's office , for one thing , to bo In the center , between the operators and the waiting room. For another , ho wants the operators away from both streets so that when you lift off the 'phono ( there will bo no ringing ) the girl will wake up In time to say hello before you are so very , very nn- gry. If she were seated near the win dow a runaway on the street or oven other things , together with the con stant noise , naturally would take her attention , and the service would bo worse than It Is now hoped to have It.
